INTRODUCTION In the wake of earthquakes last October 2019, it alarmed people around neighboring municipalities of North Cotabato and Davao Region. Series of earthquakes has been felt on the same region. Last October 16, 2019 with a magnitude 6.3 at 023 km S 62° E of Tulunan (Cotabato), October 29, 2019 with a magnitude 6.6 at 022 km S 79° E of Tulunan (Cotabato) and another hit on October 31, 2019 with a 6.5 magnitude. Existing RC buildings represent a structural type that has suffered the heavy damages on strong earthquakes experienced in the area. The awareness of the study of a reinforced concrete building subjected to seismic events is a very important issue today. During the past seismic events mentioned, damages on existing structures occurred. Post-earthquake evaluation has been done which includes visual inspection and a thorough structural detailed analysis. Retrofitting and upgrading the structure help prevents damages and reduces hazard. Assessment of an existing building will reveal the deficiencies at local and global level, the designer will use his experience and engineering judgement to select the most appropriate measure or combination of measures to improve the performance of the building. In this paper, an existing 6-storey academic building designed based on National Structural Code of the Philippines (NSCP) is investigated, before and after the seismic retrofitting with steel bracings. Retrofitting is generally a need for such structures and various strategies can be considered for improving the seismic performance. Retrofitting both local and global are modified. Global retrofitting increases lateral stiffness, stabilizes the modal 1 analysis and eliminates torsional irregularities. There are three mathematical models made: (1) existing model before earthquake assessment; (2) retrofitted model-based design requirements; (3) retrofitted model-based earthquake requirements. In the present paper a performance-based procedure for strengthening of seismically inadequate structures is presented as well. 2 II. REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE The seismic performance of existing reinforced concrete structures can be significantly enhanced and promoted through a variety of reliable retrofitting techniques. It has been reported that bracings significantly increase stiffness to frame structures, and work together with the main building structure to resist earthquake damage (Kitamura et al., 2007; Ash and Bartoletti, 2009; Gu et al., 2011). Due to the recent earthquakes in the Philippines happened in Mindanao last month of October year 2019. There are casualties in North Cotabato and Davao Region. Mutiple buildings has cracked and some eventually collapsed. One of the areas affected was in Digos City, Davao del Sur. Thus, a study to post earthquake assessment and a thorough structural analysis was conducted in the 6-storey building Cor Jesu College located in Digos, Davao del Sur. In Japan, the Guideline for Post-Earthquake Damage Evaluation and Rehabilitation (JBDPA) originally developed in 1991 was recently revised considering damaging earthquake experiences in Japan (Yoshiaki NAKANO, Masaki MAEDA, Hiroshi KURAMOTO, and Masaya MURAKAMI, 2004). A series of studies on the seismic resistance of structures retrofitted with damper systems has also been reported (Wu et al.,1998; Ramirez, 2002; Cho and Kwon, 2004). A brief review of the state-of-practice and research on the topic of upgrading RC frame buildings by steel braces is presented in this Chapter. The addition of braces has been a popular method for the seismic strengthening of RC frames and it has been the subject of several investigations over the past decades. Steel bracings can be designed to provide 3 stiffness, strength, ductility, energy dissipation, or any combination of these. Performance objectives ranging from drift control to collapse prevention can be achieved. (Badoux 1987, fib 2003,Thermou and Elnashai 2006) Concentric bracing systems are the most widely used for retrofitting concrete frames. They contribute to the lateral-load resistance of the structure through the horizontal projection of the axial force (mainly axial tension) developing in their inclined members .

METHODOLOGY OR Technique/Application Used Operational Research has been applied in construction management such as allocation of resources to projects, project scheduling, monitoring, and control. First, strategic planning is a must. Gathering data, modeling and analyzing those columns that had been affected by the recent earthquakes. Hence, we can plan it precisely and verify the members that need to be retrofitted. Second, organize the schedule. As stated from the module, one of the aspects of coordination is synchronization time. All activities in construction must be scheduled well so it will not have any losses. An unscheduled event in the construction site may cause profit-loss. Therefore, all the damaged member will be simulated using a software ETABS (Extended ThreeDimensional Analysis of Building System) to determine where does it failed, and must be followed by a schedule of visiting the actual site if earthquake will occur. In the situation that we have encountered, Operation Research emphasizes our decision as an engineer. O.R. determine, analyze, and predict the system's behavior by developing appropriate models through structural software - ETABS. Through Operation Research also, it develops our critical thinking skills on analyzing retrofitting methodology as a linear programming in the field of structural designing. 5 EARTHQUAKE VISUAL INSPECTION REPAIRABLE ?

As per thorough calculation, the building has no vertical irregularities. But it has torsional irregularity that makes the structure vulnerable. Torsional irregularity to be considered to exist when the maximum story drift, computed with design eccentricity, at one end of the structures transverse to an axis is more than 1.2 times the average of the story drifts at the two ends of the structure. 14 Retrofitting Local Retrofitting Reinforced concrete jacketing applied to damaged structural members. Fig. 4: Concrete jacketing method/process for damaged structural members 15 Concrete Jacketing The steps for local retrofitting (concrete jacketing) of damaged structural members are the following: 1. Prepare the surface of the existing RCC member to receive the structural connection with a 15-lb chipping hammer. Hammers larger than a 15-lb may cause damage to substrate and reinforcement. 2. Mark the new reinforcing bar locations on prepared surface so we can drill. 3. Drill holes of specified diameter and depth in concrete at locations per approved design calculation. 4. Clean the drilled hole in dry state with round brushes and by blowing air through a tube inserted in the hole and connected to hand operated blow out pump. 5. Inject epoxy from the foil pack with the help of epoxy dispenser, epoxy cartridge holder and disposable PVC mixing nozzle inserted inside the drilled hole to fill it from ends up to the half of the holes. 6. Insert the reinforcing bar and allow the epoxy adhesive to cure. 7. Fixing the longitudinal and transverse reinforcement around the existing columns. 8. Install and fixing formwork, the form must construct to fit tightly against existing concrete surfaces. Formwork is best attached to directly to the concrete surface with expansion anchors or standard form ties, scaffolding can be used to support the formwork. 9. Application of the previous steps for all sides of the column. 16 10. Drilling a port in the formworks is usually at upper areas to expel the air during pumping sequence. 11. To get a strong bonding should take the advantage of (pressure of water) to clean the pores and saturate the prepared surfaces, existing surfaces will permit the new pressurized materials to penetrate and cohesion. 12. Mixing the prepackaged repair materials which are designed for pumping, according to datasheet of manufacturing. 13. Start pumping. Pumping sequence is continued until the cavity is full. 17 Ultimate Load/Design Load Model 2 (Design Requirements) Ultimate Load/Design Load Model 3 (Earthquake Requirements) COMPARISON OF INDIVIDUAL COLUMN MEMBERS RECOMMENDED FOR LOCAL RETROFITTING Ultimate Load/Design Load Model 1 (Original Structure) 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 3rd 3rd 3rd 2nd 2nd 2nd 2nd 2nd 2nd 2nd 2nd 2nd 2nd 2nd C-212 C-12 C-30 C-275 C-51 C-50 C-295 C-294 C-102 C-9 C-239 C-212 C-12 C-30 C-275 C-5 C-5 C-5 C-3A C-3A PC-4 PC-4 PC-4 PC-4 C-6 C-5 C-5 C-5 C-5 C-3A C-3A 938.7 938.7 938.7 938.7 938.7 2200.1 2200.1 600.8 600.8 600.8 600.8 600.8 938.7 938.7 938.7 938.7 2200.1 2200.1 ØNn Axial, 31.6 132.1 132.1 132.1 132.1 132.1 132.1 331.3 331.3 31.6 31.6 31.6 31.6 76.6 132.1 132.1 132.1 132.1 331.3 331.3 ØMn Moment, 60.7 124.4 124.4 124.4 124.4 124.4 124.4 230.8 230.8 60.7 60.7 60.7 60.7 100.9 124.4 124.4 124.4 124.4 230.8 230.8 ØVn Shear, 4.4 18.1 18.1 18.1 18.1 18.1 18.1 38.6 38.6 4.4 4.4 4.4 4.4 12.1 18.1 18.1 18.1 18.1 38.6 38.6 ØTcr Torsion, 767.5242 - 723.7742 1092.3060 146.1817 1266.2270 179.1176 994.8001 1104.5090 2004.2260 27.8013 26.4537 86.7560 95.6854 1707.6860 265.3914 Axial, 29.9798 1848.3800 300.5456 Nu 32.4857 2958.2440 126.3372 1251.0360 31.0553 2999.6960 142.9546 1215.6500 110.0153 1272.0670 181.9378 1091.3000 108.8231 2306.5460 135.4527 890.8048 49.6637 1103.6410 144.2978 895.8777 - 2319.7730 147.6904 870.1538 49.1956 Mu Moment, 63.2855 - 63.9039 181.4640 167.2034 169.6363 70.7613 166.3054 72.9371 129.2347 122.1269 33.9581 30.9851 32.8397 26.8173 10.5001 127.8660 50.2642 112.7175 54.7500 120.8260 101.8830 Vu Shear, 2.2038 - 2.0516 2.3627 4.5419 4.6869 1.3580 2.0750 1.3794 1.6682 1.6492 1.8663 2.1659 2.0479 2.2461 0.5308 3.0614 0.5966 2.8539 0.5698 1.1828 1.1120 Tu Torsion, - - - - - - 844.8700 - 856.8297 - - 1438.9910 - - - - - - 90.8234 - 90.8774 - - - - 17.2327 - - - - 1837.0940 168.4501 Axial, - 1992.5070 187.3493 Nu - 1398.4430 173.5897 - - 1406.6920 191.3196 - - Mu Moment, - - - - - - - 59.0064 - 59.1489 131.1138 122.4728 - - - - 6.8513 - - - - 81.5763 69.5241 Vu Shear, 0.5613 0.5764 - - - - - - - 0.4433 - 0.5019 0.2158 0.2445 - - - - 0.3513 - - - - 0.1979 0.2421 Tu Torsion, 849.8170 843.6795 420.2505 784.3032 410.7147 752.5061 - - - 947.6404 - 962.3656 - - 1949.9586 - 1301.2730 - 1316.4165 65.3472 43.0409 - - - 106.9948 - 106.8292 - - - - 22.1359 - 68.5544 - 72.4549 1893.7412 213.3664 Axial, 42.3537 2026.3855 236.1082 Nu 63.9590 1483.1919 197.1143 - 158.8206 1491.1968 214.2809 - 157.8694 Mu Moment, 85.7257 86.2844 121.2913 54.0405 123.0790 54.9764 - - - 68.8632 - 68.8640 147.5065 139.2423 - - - - 8.7705 - 41.9568 - 43.9481 97.2914 83.6126 Vu Shear, 0.7363 0.7484 20.8471 1.9300 22.0675 1.8530 - - - 0.5760 - 0.6502 0.2822 0.3141 - - - - 0.4427 - 0.5633 - 0.5339 0.2669 0.3327 Tu Torsion, Section Capacity 13 3rd C-5 938.7 4.4 67.0148 Section Name 14 C-239 C-5 600.8 4.4 - 66.4153 Column Name 15 3rd C-282 C-5 60.7 128.5092 Floor 16 3rd C-38 PC-4 60.7 - 127.4807 18 No. 17 3rd C-9 31.6 777.9644 18 C-294 31.6 - 784.3093 3rd 600.8 1.8431 3rd 600.8 - 1.8684 19 PC-4 74.9909 20 PC-4 - 76.1568 C-50 153.7058 C-295 - 157.4857 - 0.0783 3rd 4.4 750.6082 69.1074 - 3rd 60.7 756.4155 - 21 31.6 38.6 103.5794 - 22 600.8 38.6 - PC-4 230.8 684.3018 - C-51 230.8 - 3rd 331.3 - - 23 331.3 - 2200.1 - - 2200.1 - C-3A - - - 16.3998 C-3A - - - 162.5494 C-30 0.7198 - - 62.4706 C-275 74.5451 - - 401.1124 4th 109.1471 - - 4th 616.5331 0.7198 - 24 18.1 1.7447 - 25 124.4 74.1493 - 132.1 61.7898 - 938.7 48.2058 110.0538 - C-5 604.3038 - C-12 451.3061 - 4th 4.4 18.1 - 26 60.7 124.4 1.8966 31.6 - 132.1 61.3503 938.7 - 600.8 47.8530 C-5 - 29 PC-4 484.4329 30 C-239 4.4 6.4050 16.1230 C-294 4.4 162.8531 4th 60.7 61.0384 4th 60.7 399.4731 4th 27 31.6 - 31 28 31.6 - 3.0376 600.8 - 161.8968 600.8 - 148.6026 C-282 PC-4 - 628.5476 5th PC-4 - 4.4582 32 C-50 - 112.9793 2.4522 C-295 - 103.4856 70.7039 PC-4 4th 4.4 549.0265 54.9184 C-294 4th 60.7 4.0677 365.2137 5th 31.6 138.0173 - 33 600.8 125.8846 - 3.0541 600.8 PC-4 560.5918 - 54.5035 PC-4 C-51 18.1 - 51.7996 C-295 124.4 1.4171 612.5805 5th 31.6 60.7 132.1 57.1024 - 34 600.8 31.6 938.7 44.5723 - 2.4559 PC-4 600.8 C-5 251.0751 - 70.2146 C-50 PC-4 4.4 - 54.6427 5th C-51 60.7 - 408.5372 35 5th 31.6 - - 0.1844 36 600.8 - - 53.4842 3.5734 - - 84.6614 4.4 - 50.7156 158.2497 60.7 1.5217 607.5568 124.9534 31.6 56.3598 - 151.8596 44.1008 - 262.1526 - 278.0032 - 298.4984 18.1 4.4 - - - 60.7 - 2.5208 124.4 - - - - 112.2203 132.1 - - - 4.4 107.6749 - - - 271.9447 938.7 - - 2.3544 C-5 - - 105.3182 C-282 - 6th 102.8125 6th - 37 267.5678 38 Fig. 5: Damaged structural members required for local retrofitting CHB Wall Crack Injection This retrofitting is effective only in minor cracks. Epoxy sealants are used to inject inside the cracks and plaster the exterior part of the crack. Thus, major cracks in the CHB are advised to be demolished and replaced. Fig. 6 – Sample Crack injection output CHB Wall Crack Injection Methodology 1. Clean the crack using a wire brush. Vigorously clean the concrete surface surrounding the crack so that the crack is not plugged with debris. 2. Blow out the crack with compressed air. 3. Repair epoxy would be used to seal the crack on the outside. This is also referred to as capping the crack. Prepare the cartridge according to the label instructions and apply epoxy over the crack leaving spaces for the poured installation. Place the ports eight to ten inches apart. 4. Press the epoxy and smooth with a putty knife. It should be applied one to two inches wide along the length of the crack. 19 5. Using a plastic putty knife, apply epoxy underneath the outer half of the poured base. Ensure that the poured passageway is not obstructed or blocked when applying the epoxy. 6. Center the port over the crack face in each gap and attach. Be sure to seal any pinholes or voids between the ports and the substrate being injected. Allow epoxy to fully cure prior to starting the injection. 7. Prepare the cartridge by shaking for 60 seconds and then stand the cartridge upright for 60 seconds. 8. Insert the cartridge into a dispensing tool. Remove the cap and the end plug. 9. Dispense material into a disposable container until both sides are flowing equally. 10. Remove the flow control that’s packaged in each nozzle. Insert the flow control onto the end of the cartridge. 11. Attach the nozzle. Hold the cartridge upright while dispensing to purge out any air bubbles. 12. Dispose one short stroke of material into a disposable container. Do not use the material in the container. 13. Firmly attach the tubing to the nozzle. Attach the opposite end of the tubing tightly over the tip of the first port that needs to be injected. The flow clip should always be closed and only open while dispensing material. 14. Start with the lowest port when injecting vertical cracks. Inject until epoxy reaches the next port. 20 15. Remove the tubing adapter from the port and attach to the second port. 16. Use the cap to plug the port. Begin injection at the second port and inject until the epoxy reaches the third port. Repeat until finished. 17. After curing is complete, remove the ports with a hammer. For a more finished look, the epoxy cap can be ground smooth finish by smoothing out the miracle bond capping material using a grinder.

Exterior frame addition adds stiffness to the building and eliminates torsional irregularities. The retrofitting method reduces seismic demand of the structure due to the increase in the effective damping of the structures. Additional advantage of using the method is that after an earthquake, steel frame dampers can easily be replaced for retrofitting structures for future earthquakes. 22 V. CONCLSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS After a thorough structural investigation, the Norbert Building is recommended for retrofitting. The columns had damaged concrete cores and buckled vertical reinforcement, beams and columns were severely cracked by the series of four strong earthquakes including numerous big aftershocks in Southern Philippines. But by Earthquake Engineering Design there are solutions that can be done to the building, to make it serviceable and can be safely occupied by retrofitting this both locally and globally to restore its system stiffness and strength or its seismic over-all performance. Global retrofitting will start by repairing the individual members to restore the possible recoverable percentage of the original capacities considering that it is impossible to restore the original capacity of the concrete cracked members through Epoxy Injections. In the actual condition some concrete cracks were “closed cracks” where the Epoxy cannot penetrate through the cracks therefore it cannot repair the concrete section. For the Buckled or Damaged Reinforcing Bars, Epoxy cannot repair or restore the strength and stiffness of the reinforcement, its application is mainly to concrete elements. Considering the weaken reinforced concrete column and beam elements, the original over-all structural system lateral stiffness was also reduced; under such condition additional lateral elements should be added to reinforced and strengthen the Over-All Structural System Earthquake or Lateral stiffness and the Seismic Performance. Steel Jacketing and CFRP Jacketing were proposed to reinforced the local members and Steel Bracing Systems must be added 23 to the building to redirect the earthquake load path and to reduced the earthquake load of the Individual Concrete elements, being considered to have reduced capacity due to cracking and rebar buckling, to prevent it from failure when future strong earthquake will happen. As per structural analysis, Norbert Building needs to be retrofitted not only through the use of epoxy injection but also with another retrofitting strategy such as global and local retrofitting otherwise the building must be out of service. The damages caused by earthquake to a certain structure cannot be fully repaired, its original capacity cannot be fully restored by a single retrofitting approach. The building structural system has its design capacity unique to the architectural requirements, intended usage, site location and all natural and manmade hazard expected to be resisted by the building. For a building with Reinforced Concrete Moment Resisting Frame, its lateral or Seismic Resisting System is the assemblage of Columns and Beams forming the Framing Network combined to act as a unit in absorbing the Horizontal and Vertical Earthquake Forces. Failure and weakness of a single structural element can be the cause of failure of the total system that may even lead to the collapse of the entire building. Reinforced concrete buildings structures in Davao Region presents a unique case as it suffered not just a single earthquake but a series of four strong earthquakes with numerous strong aftershocks damage by strong earthquake. Working to retrofit severely damage Reinforced concrete building would be very critical. There is impossibility to check the current stiffness and strength of a severely 24 damaged Reinforced Concrete Building after being shaken by the series of earthquakes. Without the use of earthquake devices to measure the modal response to understand and know the actual stiffness and vibration characteristics of the actual damaged structure, a prudent engineering judgement and conservatism by penalizing weaken members through reduction of its capacity and adding new components to resist the earthquake forces by engineering the new load path of the seismic lateral load. Furthermore, discovery of new concrete damages after the implementation of the Initial retrofitting is very alarming, even with the temporary supports, smaller earthquake (4.8Mw) or Service Level Earthquakes can inflect new damages to the building. And upon thorough structural assessment, the Norbert 6 Story Reinforced Concrete Building of Cor Jesu College, Inc. will not be safe for occupancy if not retrofitted globally and locally. 25 REFERENCES 1.
